American actor, Will Smith has been banned from the Oscars for a period of 10 years following his controversial incident with Popular comedian, Chris Rock.
The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts and Science announced Smithโs ban in a letter to organization members on Friday, noting that the 94th Oscars had been โovershadowed by the unacceptable and harmful behaviour we saw Mr Smith exhibit on stageโ.
He would not be allowed at any Academy events or programme for the next decade.

โThis action we are taking today in response to Will Smithโs behavior is a step toward a larger goal of protecting the safety of our performers and guests, and restoring trust in the Academy,โ the Academy wrote.
Recall, he smacked Chris Rock on the face for joking about his wifeโs bald head. Following the incident, Smith apologised for his actions and resigned from the Academy.
The Academy, which organises the Oscars, met virtually on Friday to discuss disciplinary action.
It apologised for not reacting swiftly when the slap occurred and said banning Smith was aimed at protecting performers and guests and โrestoring trust in the Academyโ.
Rock was also thanked by the Academy for โmaintaining his composure under extraordinary circumstancesโ. Meanwhile, on the same night, Will Smith won an Oscar for Best Actor for his role in the movie, King Richard.
